Mrignayani

#1st in Tricolor Triennial Awards by Indian Legion [Indian Fanfiction Category]

She was as fierce as a wildfire.
She was as fast as a cheetah.
She was as clever as a fox
She was as brave as a tigress.

She was Mrignayani, the doe eyed one.

When the mighty Rajputana kingdoms from the North West pose an imminent threat to Mahishmati, Amarendra Bahubali, the Imperial Emperor faces a dilemma. In an already war torn world, on the advice of his Court and his Queen, Devasena, he wishes to avoid further bloodshed. And thus, the decision of an alliance forged through marriage is fixed.

Bhallaladeva, the Commander and Prince Regent of Mahishmati, keeps himself busy with incessant wars at the borders, resulting in several annexations to the Kingdom. He keeps himself immersed in statecraft and stews helplessly, in his own bitterness.

Evidently, he is not amused when the court calls upon him, bidding him to act as their bait in this less than appealing alliance.

But he complies, though reticently.

But what neither the court nor the Royal family or her own husband could have guessed was the absolute tornado that the Princess of Chittorgarh was and the sheer havoc that she will end up causing in their lives.

Dive in to see how Mrignayani navigates through treacherous court politics, hidden agendas of the nobility, bearing the weight of some dark secrets of her own. Is she the one holding the reigns or will she turn out to be the pawn in this dangerous game?

And is there any chance of love blossoming, with he who has been told to be more monster than man?
